you guys get to confiscate 'em.

It's gonna be a big day.

Un-f***in' real!

Front and back.

Kate, come on. F*** these people, man.

They've been using us from the beginning.

We don't have to do this.

I need to know what they used us for.

- Doesn't matter what!

- Yes, it does!

I say we walk and make them

eat this whole f***ed-up operation.

No. I have to know.

Black Mercedes... Plate number:

Romeo-India-November-

three-one-Bravo-seven.

Heading south by southeast.

Where?

Okay.

We gotta hit the tunnel

the minute we get on the ground.

Pretty exciting, huh?

What is the target's location?

14 miles south of Nogales

heading west rapidly.

Keep your f***in' safeties on,

barrels pointed down.

Stay in the back.

Don't shoot anyone

on my f***in' team. Right?

Gear check?

Thermal camera check.

Night vision goggles check.

Get those guys.

Wanna take Alpha squad, I'll take B squad?

- You got it. Let's do it.

- Let's go, boys.

Control, do you copy?

Roger, Alpha. We read.

Fifty meters. Your three o'clock, Alpha.

Stand by. Getting close to objective.

Alpha, Bravo, be advised.

12 meters straight ahead.

All right, we need to boogie and

we need to do it quiet till we find the center.

Draw the fighters to you

and make some noise.

Don't follow me. I'll be fine.

What are the rules of engagement?

Weapons free, my friend. Weapons free.

Weapons free, boys.

Good luck.

Oh, God!

- You okay?

- My gun!

Leave it. Stay on my six.

Freeze!

Step away from him.

Put that down.

I mean it! Move away from him right now!

Don't ever point a weapon at me again.

Catch your breath. Then get back up there.

I am through. Do you have my location?

Roger, we have you.

Target is east and north of you.

Looks like Highway 56 to 17.

Will intercept him if he stays on 17.

Go east on 56 off Highway 2.

Wilco.

Is he through yet?

We have joy. GPS is transmitting.

Audio is transmitting.

Should intercept in 20.

That was a clean, clean f***ing op,

my friend.

Except for these two a**holes.

Well, you're better overseas.

You don't have to babysit.

Where's Kate?

I thought she was with you.

We gotta go back.

Sh*t. Boys, we're missin' one. Let's go.

Hey!

Just lay back, baby. Let it happen.

Stop! Stop!

Get off me!

Stop moving! Stop!

Stop it.

Just relax. Just relax.

All right? You gonna stay there?

Are you gonna stay there?

All right.

Now, you listen.

You went up the wrong tunnel.

You saw things you shouldn't have seen.

What is Medellin?

Medellin?

Medellin refers to a time

when one group controlled

every aspect of the drug trade,

providing a measure of order

that we could control.

And until somebody finds a way

to convince 20% of the population

to stop snorting and smoking that sh*t,

order's the best we can hope for.

And what you saw up there,

was Alejandro working toward

returning that order.

Alejandro works for

the f***ing Colombian Cartel.

He works for the competition.

Alejandro works for anyone

who will point him toward

the people who made him.

Us.

Them.

Anyone who will turn him loose.

So, he can get the person

that cut off his wife's head,

and threw his daughter into a vat of acid.

Yeah.

That's what we're dealing with.

You can't do this.

You can't.

I'm sure as sh*t not the person

you're gonna hide it all behind.

You need to just take a breath.

I'm gonna f***in' talk.

- No, you're not.

- Yeah.

I'm gonna tell everyone what you did.

That would be a major mistake.

Is that the target up ahead? Confirm.

Roger that.

Black Mercedes, 60 meters ahead.

Silvio...

This motherf***er...

What happens when we get to the house?

You'll stop the car, I'll get out.

What will happen to me?

Slow it down.

Six remain.

We're going blind.

No.

Every night you have families killed.

And yet, here you dine.

Tonight should be no different.

Do you think the people that sent you here

are any different?

Who do you think we learned it from?

The grieving lawyer...

Your wife, you think she'd be proud

of what you've become?

Don't forget about my daughter.

Not in front of my boys.

Go ahead and finish your meal.

I would recommend not standing

on balconies for a while, Kate.

Sit down.

You look like a little girl when you're scared.

You remind me of the daughter

they took away from me.

I need you to sign this piece of paper.

It basically says that everything we did

was done by the book.

I can't sign that.

Sign it.

It's okay.

I can't sign that.

God!

You would be committing suicide, Kate.

Come on. Sign it.

You should move to a small town,

where the rule of law still exists.

You will not survive here.

You are not a wolf.

And this is the land of wolves now.
